What is an Iguana?
The iguana is a large herbivorous lizard that loves basking in warm, sunny places. It comes mostly from Central and South America and likes to live in forests, near rivers, and sometimes even in cities where it can find plenty of food and sun. Iguanas can grow up to 2 meters long, with much of that length being their long, powerful tail. They usually live for about 10 to 15 years, and some even longer with good care. Their skin is covered in tiny scales that feel rough to the touch, and along their backs runs a line of spiky scales that gives them a fierce but friendly look. Iguanas are very quiet animals, communicating mostly with body language like nodding their heads or puffing up their bodies when they feel excited or threatened. They love to munch on leaves, flowers, and fruits, making them gentle vegetarians of the reptile world.
